Question [Q] keep messages after flashing ROM

I'm trying to flash a ROM that'll take me from 2.1 to 2.2

I've looked around for a way to be able to flash a ROM while still keeping your messages intact, but I haven't been able to do it. I've been able to specifically restore SMS data with Titanium after flashing, but sadly this makes the messaging service force close whenever I try to use it.

Anyone know of a working way to keep your messages after wiping to flash a ROM? I find it annoying to have to look at an empty inbox every time after flashing a ROM :( and plus, I'm kinda nostalgic. Any help would be nice.

I recall my backup pro, yet I have noticed that the ROMs based of the stock are able to restore, there is a folder on the SDCARD called Backup which I think contain the settings and messages it restores during initial setup, there also is a application called setup on those ROMs have not tried yet what if you flash rosie, launcher2, and the setup just to see if it works (not setting it as the default launcher of course or just after setup if you are not able to use home screen rm files using adb)
I might be a n00b but at least I got android phones.
